Spring School Pics

School pictures are either a hit or miss, and Pierson's didn't turnout good this year.  We did get some cute ones of Hallie!

The school has been using Life Touch for several years.  Frankly, their pictures never turn out that great and their customer service is terrible.  Oh...and did I mention that they charge a ridiculous amount of money.  Truly! 







Pierson is 5

Where has the time gone??  My sweet boy turned 5 at the beginning of June.  It seems that each year when we decide to do his party, it is a hit or miss with the weather.  We were planning on a swim party this year, but the water was SO cold!  We opted for a party at the house instead and I think the kids had fun.  We got the bounce house out, did water balloons and purchased some silly string. 









His birthday happened to be the last day of school / end of year party.  He was excited that everyone sang to him.  After school, we surprised him and took him to the bowling alley.  The bowling didn't keep his interest for too long....so we moved on over to the game section!









I recently took him to his 5 year checkup and everything went well!  Our growing boy is 52 pounds (95%), 47 inches tall (99%), and has a BMI of 16.6 (81%).  Dr. Schwartz estimates he will be 6'2" and 220 pounds.  Geez!! 

A few more pics of P recently....




This boy LOVES blankets.  It could be 800 degrees outside and he is still going to wrap up in as many blankets as he can find to watch tv!









Pierson's very favorite thing to do is play Legos.  They go EVERYWHERE with us....everywhere!  He has tons of them.  He really does a pretty good job of putting them together and making up his own things to put together as well.  It never fails...we step on Legos everyday.  Those little ones can really hurt ya! 

He doesn't sit still for long, but when he is watching a movie it will usually keep him still the entire time.  He has an amazing memory and is a good story teller.  He asks TONS of questions about the most random things.  He often asks "mommy is it okay if I look at pretty girls?"  I picked him up at school one day and he said he was playing "princess" on the playground and one of his friends Gia kissed him on the cheek.  Oh boy!! 

Pierson makes friends with everyone he meets.  He doesn't know a stranger, and will talk to anyone he meets (which is good and bad). 

He is very good with his sister, until she comes through and knocks his legos over.  He LOVES his mama...which I am certainly ok with!

He learned to ride his bike without training wheels a few months back and is having so much fun with it!  We were amazed at how fast he picked it up.  I think that the scooter he had for awhile really helped with his balance. 

Pierson is still very sensitive and will easily get his feelings hurt.  He wants so bad to play with the older kids in the neighborhood when they are outside.  I can tell they are annoyed! 

Sweet boy, we love you so, so much and are beyond thankful that God chose us to be your parents. 

Pre-K Graduation

Primose Griffin Parc has been absolutely wonderful for both of our kids.  Pierson will continue there throughout the summer before he goes to Kinder. 



 


This should not come as a surprise....






Ms. Kat and Ms. Shaeli.  Ms. Kat is not at Primrose any longer but we sure do love her.  She has been absolutely amazing!!















Pierson's Pre K teacher was Ms. Craig (on the left).  She has been so wonderful for Pierson and has really taught him so much.  She doesn't play...if you catch my drift.  Our sweet boy needed that :)

Ms. Stewart (in the white pants) is the Private Kindergarten teacher.  One of the funniest stories I heard about my boy all year long was after she got married...  "Ms. Stewart did you marry a daddy with a mustache?"  I died laughing when she told me Pierson asked her that.


 Ms. Truitt (far right).....Hallie has paid may visits to her this year.  Um...this is who the kids get to talk to if they are misbehaving!  We know her well!!










This is the best family pic we could get.....






I really can't believe Pierson is going to Kinder next year.  I am so nervous, but I know he is ready!!
